Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

RAPID SOUTHERN BLOT PROTOCOL FOR THE ANALYSIS OF TARGETED MUTAGENESIS IN THE MOUSE IGHG1 LOCUS

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
The efficiency of homologous recombination relies on the lenght of the homology arms and the chromatin compactation of the locus. In ES cells the immuoglobulin locu is compacted. Thus, the homologous recombination events occur at a very low frequency.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Assembly and dynamics of the bacteriophage T4 homologous recombination machinery

Virology Journal, 2010
Homologous recombination (HR), a process involving the physical exchange of strands between homologous or nearly homologous DNA molecules, is critical for maintaining the genetic diversity and genome stability of species.

Recovery of arrested replication forks by homologous recombination is error-prone. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2012
Homologous recombination is a universal mechanism that allows repair of DNA and provides support for DNA replication. Homologous recombination is therefore a major pathway that suppresses non-homology-mediated genome instability.

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Dynamics and impact of homologous recombination on the evolution of Legionella pneumophila.

PLoS Genetics, 2017
Legionella pneumophila is an environmental bacterium and the causative agent of Legionnaires' disease. Previous genomic studies have shown that recombination accounts for a high proportion (>96%) of diversity within several major disease-associated ...

Transcriptional profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles from prebiopsy prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RNA profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from blood samples of men undergoing prostate biopsy identifies transcripts associated with clinically significant prostate cancer. Integrative analysis with public tumor datasets links EV‐derived gene signatures to tumor stage and progression‐free survival, highlighting CASP3, XRCC2, and RIT1 ...

A Model of Non-Homologous Recombination Mediated by HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase Explaining Sequence Motif Duplications That Confer a Replication Fitness Advantage

Viruses
The Reverse Transcriptase of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is distinguished by its high rate of homologous recombination. A less-studied consequence of this phenomenon is the increased occurrence of non-homologous recombination, which results in

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.
